There’s no doubt Kristen Bell looked stunning at the 2017 Golden Globes Sunday evening — her black sequinned Jenny Packham gown hugged her frame to perfection and the plunging neckline showed off her decolletage beautifully.

But as the 36-year-old actress noted on her Instagram stories the night of the show, she had a little help fitting into her dress from — ready for this? — butt pads.

Yes, those are some flesh-coloured butt pads in all their glory, which, we imagine made for great cushioning throughout the show. And frankly, we appreciate how honest Kristen is about her red carpet styling secret. After all, we can’t all be #blessed with Kardashian kurves, right?

Bell’s butt pads weren’t the only getting ready snap she shared with her fans — she also posted a no-makeup photo of herself wearing her gown and sipping on some matcha tea, as well as an “alien abduction” mask she wore pre-awards show to prep her skin.
